So...Callahan goes back to playing with Stepan and Nash, and all of a sudden, no problem scoring. Hmmm...seems like someone made the case recently that whenever he played with the only guys producing this year, he produced just fine. Wonder who was making that point...

You can be smarmy if you want, but if you watched the game tonight, it was pretty damned obvious that Callahan's (return to his) balls-to-the-wall style did more to create for Stepan and Nash than the other way around. Not taking anything away from the other two, but Cally's goal was all him, and his primary assist to Stepan was a pass so pretty that even Higgins couldn't have screwed up.

Callahan had a great night because of how he played--not because of who he played with.
